Forgery enters the picture when someone generates a false document and then affizes what they purport to be the signature of a real human to it, falsely.

At least one of the fabricated 'COLB' images had a (claimed) seal and signature, which would propel mere fraud into the realm of forgery. Had no signature been attached, no seal claiming it was genuine, then it would be merely fraud.
